Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli (1920-1995) was, paradoxically, one of the most celebrated and one of the most reclusive pianists of his time. His fabled technique and peerless musicianship earned him attention early on as the undisputed winner of the 1939 Geneva International Music Competition. One of the jury members was Alfred Cortot, who announced "A new Liszt is born!". To the frustration of his public, Michelangeli's studio recordings were few and his concert appearances sporadic: his brief recital for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (taped in the Toronto studios, 1970) was appropriately titled "A Most Rare Event". It features a sterling performance of Beethoven's Piano Sonata in C Major, Op. 2, No. 3. Sviatoslav Richter (1915-1997) was a pianist in the Great Tradition, yet there was nothing traditional about this collosus of the keyboard. Few pianists have had the technical, emotional, and intellectual range that Richter brought to his performances. In 1964, Richter was invited to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's Toronto studios for a videotaping of a recital program. The main work of the program, Prokofiev's Second Piano Sonata in D Minor, is a perfect vehicle for a demonstration of Richter's art, combining, as it does, passages of thrilling virtuosity contrasted with some of Prokofiev's most lyrical pages. The Sonata is flanked by Brahms's lovely E Minor Intermezzo and two contrasting works by Ravel: the shimmering impressionistic tapestry of Jeux d'eau and the brilliant Spanish-flavored Alborado del Gracioso. Approximately 65 minutes, Color/Black &amp; White.

Two Titans of the Keyboard

In 1976, Martha Argerich was in the studios of the CBC Montreal network where she performed the Schumann Piano Concerto, Liszt's Funerailles and Ravel's Jeux d'eau. The program preserved what is believed to be the only concerto performance by the pianist that has been captured on video. The concerto receives a patrician performance with all the tonal beauty one would expect from this remarkable artist. �The Ravel also benefits from her gorgeous tonal palette and evenness of touch. �It is in the Liszt that one experiences the staggering virtuosity that is the other element of Argerich's art. �The left-hand octave passages in Funerailles are played with such awesome speed that the video cameras could barely capture the movement of the hand. �As exhilarating to watch as to hear, Argerich on television is a major addition to the recorded work of one of the foremost talents of our day. � � � � � � � � � � � � �
